[SUCCESS] Gigabyte Designare Z390 (Thunderbolt 3) + i7-9700K + AMD RX 580

[CaseySJ]

Why is the LED of my memory still lit after my mac sleep? still After one night, can it be repaired? z390 Designare ，i5 9600k，G.Skill TridentZ 8*2，RX580，whenever 10.14 or 10.15，the problem exists，thanks。

LED of memory will always remain ON during sleep. Here's why:

• Sleep is not the same as Shutdown.
  • During shutdown, everything in memory is erased.
  • When we start up again, everything has to be reloaded from scratch.
• Sleep is not the same as Hibernate.
  • During hibernate, everything in memory is saved into a disk file.
  • When we start up again, the contents of memory are restored from the saved file so computer can continue from where it left off.

But during Sleep:

• Contents of memory are not saved to disk and not cleared.
• All other components are powered down, but memory remains powered-on.
• This is why we can wake up from sleep so quickly and continue where we left off.

Because memory remains powered-on, LEDs on memory modules also stay powered on. Maybe in the future we will be able to control LEDs on memory modules separately.

I was able to load headless iGPU on iMacPro1,1 with the free2000 driver.

@CaseySJ I made another interesting discovery on my machine in testing.

I was watching memmap and in the past I could only ever boot with slide=0. I was checking what would free memory in BIOS settings.

If I enable iGPU, my second available region, where 100000 starts had 14580 pages listed.

If I disable iGPU this increases to 19580 pages for that available region.

Now, I use DVMT Pre-Allocated 64MB and DVMT Total 256MB. Changing the latter to 128MB had no effect on that region, but setting the former to 32MB got me to 16580 pages. I left it at 32MB and 256MB.

With 16580 pages, I was able to boot iMacPro1,1+Headless iGPU+slide=0+AptioMemoryFix successfully, and I would assume changing SMBIOS back to iMac19,1 would be fine.

I don't know the implications of setting DVMT Pre-Allocation to a lower value, if that would cause any issues or not. If not, this is a viable solution for me to not have to disable my iGPU, which led me to iMacPro1,1 to deal with the broken preview of JPEG files.

I've been trying to update (like a normal mac), but my machine keeps restarting, and failing to install, how did you update?

hopefully @CaseySJ will have some successful results using the designare z390 imac 19,1 and successfully update the security patch that apple just released for 10.15.

Successfully updated my iMacPro1,1 Hackintosh. No issues. Designare Z390 is next...



EDIT: Designare Z390 MacMini8,1 update also successful.



During the update process, at the Clover Boot Menu you will find a volume named Boot macOS Install from Catalina - Data, where "Catalina - Data" is the name of your macOS SSD followed by the "- Data" suffix.

Any time during the update process if you see this option (with the word install) you must select it.

The update showed up in System Preferences and I followed the typical update procedure. Restarted in "Install MacOS..." partition, then restarted and booted through default Clover drive selection. Are you able to see the install partition in the Clover boot loader screen?

That's the spirit! Please have a look at the following diagrams and let me know:

1. Which HS ports to disable
2. Which SS ports to enable

The counts of #1 and #2 must be the same.

My wish:

1. Disable HS09 and HS10

2. Enable HS01 and SS01

didn't work, guess I'll wait, thank you. Interestingly do you keep your kexts in L/E or in the clover/kexts/Other, thanks

My wish:

1. Disable HS09 and HS10

2. Enable HS01 and SS01

Attached is the modified USB SSDT that:

• Disables HS10
• Enables HS01

Because SS01 is already enabled, it is not necessary to disable both HS09 and HS10, so I disabled the bottom USB 2.0 port (HS10).

Please backup and remove the existing SSDT-UIAC-DESIGNARE-Z390-V7.aml from CLOVER/ACPI/patched and copy the new SSDT-UIAC-DESIGNARE-Z390-V7A.aml in its place. Reboot and check whether the Luna Display device connects.
